IRCDM Chapter 99

Chapter 99: Congratulations, My Great General

He had engaged in countless close-quarters combats in his life, and there was only one person who could suppress him in skill and be so shameless.

By the time he reacted, the military knife in his hand had already slashed towards the other person out of inertia, stopping just a hair’s breadth away from their throat in the final second.

“Are you trying to die!?” Li Yao cursed.

If he had recognized him a second later, Liang Huan’s head and neck would have been separated.

Liang Huan laughed, “I know what I’m doing.”

“You don’t know shit!” Li Yao grumbled as he sheathed his knife.

What kind of sane person fighting would be willing to expose all their weaknesses for the sake of acting like a hooligan! Fucking hell!

Liang Huan managed to wrap his arms around his waist, comparing the feel to his memories and concluding, “You’ve lost weight.”

“Tsk.” Li Yao jumped away from him, frowning as he reached into his clothes, suspiciously saying, “You secretly changed your body shape again? If I wasn’t sharp, I almost turned you into human meat rolls.”

“Mm.” Liang Huan took his hand and placed it on his own face, “My face has changed too.”

Li Yao pinched his face with interest, unwilling to let go, “Aren’t you supposed to be in a meeting? Are you courting death coming to the military department to get beaten?”

“Today is your victory celebration, so it’s only right and proper that I come to congratulate you.” Liang Huan linked onto his precarious mental power, following his lead to lower his head and kiss his earlobe, “And to see how badly the people in the military department can bully you.”

Even with a mental power defense device, he was still ambushed.

“This is called luring the snake out of its hole.” Li Yao tilted his head slightly, smugly saying, “I had to bait them first—”

Liang Huan grabbed his chin and kissed him, pinning him between himself and the wall. Li Yao seized the opportunity to grab his hair, while his other hand wandered to his waist. Dark blue pills were crushed into powder under his leather shoes. Restrained breathing and the subtle rustling of fabric intertwined, isolated by the completely enclosed space.

Liang Huan skillfully unbuckled his belt, reaching around his vest to grasp his waist: “Is the military department not even willing to feed you?”

Li Yao chuckled, “Mainly because I miss Your Majesty day and night, and I have to provide high-intensity remote guidance at night, so it’s quite tiring.”

Liang Huan lowered his head and kissed his chest hidden beneath his disheveled clothes: “Then why don’t you come back?”

Li Yao’s breathing hitched slightly: “I was originally planning to see you tonight, so who’s to blame for you running here yourself?”

Liang Huan wickedly kneaded the soft flesh between his teeth, clearly feeling the body trembling beneath his palm, and his mood instantly lifted: “I shouldn’t have let you come back.”

He finally understood the plight of those tyrannical rulers. Letting him serve as a great general in a distant territory was good, but it was even more enjoyable to keep him confined in the harem, indulging in pleasure day and night.

It would be even better if he could be filled with resentment as he knelt on the bed, begging for favors.

“You can’t keep me locked up.” Li Yao bit his ear unhappily, saying unclearly, “Let go of me, don’t be crazy.”

A sharp pain came from his earlobe, and Liang Huan reluctantly released his hand, looking at him with a non-smiling expression: “Are you planning to go out like this?”

Li Yao’s Adam’s apple bobbed, clearly showing that reason and instinct were fiercely clashing. He cleared his throat and said, “Zhu Li is outside. If I don’t go out, won’t they have wasted their efforts tonight?”

Liang Huan raised his hand and took off the bionic mask. Taking advantage of his momentary surprise, he forcefully pushed his legs apart with his knee. Black long military boots stepped on broken glass and powder: “Officer Li, shall we talk business?”

Li Yao looked him up and down with satisfaction: “Speak.”

“Give me thirty minutes, and I’ll give you 50 billion Dawn Coins afterward.” Liang Huan let him unbutton his shirt and run wild.

Li Yao’s hands didn’t stop, but his mind remained calm: “Are you being so kind?”

Liang Huan lowered his head and kissed the corner of his mouth, his voice laced with teasing and laughter: “Husband.”

The drunkenness that Li Yao had accumulated all night exploded in his head, causing his reason to teeter on the brink of collapse: “…Unless you add a mecha.”

Liang Huan raised an eyebrow.

“The Qilin from Mecha I Department is good.” Li Yao scratched his chin.

“The Qilin is the minister’s exclusive mecha.” Liang Huan narrowed his eyes, looking at him with some dissatisfaction, “You want Mecha I Department?”

Li Yao patted his chest: “You didn’t come just to see me, did you? Yue Hang and Pei Zhong have been lurking in the military department. I think wanting these is just right.”

Liang Huan agreed readily: “Alright, then one hour.”

Li Yao was puzzled: “Why?”

Liang Huan’s gaze gradually became dark and heavy, the strong sense of invasion not concealed at all. Li Yao suddenly realized something, and after hesitating for half a second between trying to escape and being forced to accept, he enthusiastically wrapped his arms around Liang Huan’s waist: “Your Majesty, your condition is really too much. For the sake of our past relationship, I will reluctantly accept it.”

Liang Huan: “…”

Tsk, I asked for too little.

……..

Zhu Li was puzzled by the fluctuating micro-metal reaction on the light screen. He was about to have someone further lock down the signal when he heard approaching footsteps.

He didn’t pay attention to it. The entire corridor had been cleared, and no one else could come here except his own people.

“Zhu Li.” A familiar voice rang out.

Zhu Li looked up, his brow furrowing: “Why are you in the military department? Did you finish your mission that you dare to come back?”

The two were about the same height and looked seven or eight parts alike, so much so that they could be said to be twins. However, Zhu Ming had spent years in the experimental cabin and had been using drugs since he was a child, making his skin excessively pale. He was much thinner than the healthy Zhu Li, and his drooping eyes made him look weak: “I’ve been by Liang Huan’s side for seven days. Dad refuses to pay to redeem me, so I had to bribe the guards to help me escape. Liang Huan is still chasing me… The thing you wanted me to do has been completed, and you should fulfill your promise and return my mother’s belongings to me.”

Zhu Li scoffed: “Is the military department the place to talk about such things? Go back and wait.”

Zhu Ming clenched his fists: “If you don’t return it to me, I’ll tell Dad that your mother killed my mother, and make it public.”

“Hahahaha.” Zhu Li laughed, taking two steps to get closer to him: “The guy who grew up on nutrient solution is just stupid. Do you think Father doesn’t know about this? I was born earlier than you. He only married your mother for money. If you couldn’t smell mental power, do you think you would still be alive?”

Zhu Ming angrily grabbed his collar: “What did you say?!”

The smile on Zhu Li’s face gradually widened: “Father never intended to redeem you. Your ability to distinguish is already declining, and your mental power is on the verge of exhaustion, so you won’t live past this year. If you die, the company and shares under your mother’s name will all belong to him. Why bother coming back? It would be great if you just died in the Eastern Third District, everyone would be happy.”

Zhu Ming clenched his fist and punched him in the face, but he easily grabbed his wrist and threw him aside without any effort. Zhu Ming staggered a few steps to the side and hit the wall, glaring at him with bloodshot eyes: “I’m going to kill you!”

Zhu Li was too lazy to even look at him: “Hurry up and get out of here, don’t be an eyesore. Find a place to wait quietly for death. When I inherit Dawn Group—oh, and your mother’s shares and company, then maybe I’ll go to your grave to thank you.”

Zhu Ming was burning with anger and rushed towards him again. Zhu Li kicked him in the stomach, and Zhu Ming was kicked to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His eyes were full of red blood vessels, and he trembled as he reached into his pocket.

Zhu Li said impatiently, “You brought this on yourself—”

Bang!

A heteromorph capture net shot out from Zhu Ming’s sleeve, tightly wrapping Zhu Li, who was completely unprepared. Before he could react, Zhu Ming pounced on him and punched him hard in the face, then took out an anesthetic muscle relaxant in Zhu Li’s shocked gaze and injected it into his neck. The person whose movements were restricted by the capture net instantly lost his voice and movement, and could only stare at him, his eyes full of anger.

To be stabbed in the back by a fool he had never taken seriously was simply an insult to his intelligence.

Zhu Ming took two steps back in horror, looking around vigilantly, before trembling and clicking on his headset: “Deng, Deng Meng, I caught him, what do I do next?”

“The surveillance on this floor has been covered by our people. Drag him into the bathroom, no one will find you. A robot will come in to clean the bathroom in a minute. You push him to the equipment room on the ninth floor.” Deng Meng’s voice came into his ears, “The alarm in the building will sound in an hour, and someone will pick you up then.”

Zhu Ming said worriedly, “An hour? What if I get discovered?”

Deng Meng said helplessly, “You’re a robber, what are you afraid of? At worst, kill Zhu Li and let him be buried with you.”

Zhu Ming looked at his hands in disbelief: “I’m a robber?”

“Just do it, you’re making me angry.” Deng Meng had been by Liang Huan’s side for a long time, and thought he had become mild-tempered. He was so angry just now that he almost wanted to do it himself, “Can a young master like you have some backbone?”

Zhu Ming kicked Zhu Li hard, gritting his teeth: “I have plenty of backbone!”

After saying that, he dragged him into the bathroom with great effort.

——

Top floor of the military department building, main control room.

Yue Hang was quickly dismantling the core equipment of the protective shield, while Pei Zhong next to him took out a row of chips and copied the water and electricity keys of each district. In the interval of waiting, he couldn’t help but say, “Isn’t it a bit too ruthless to copy them all and then destroy them?”

Yue Hang, biting on a flashlight, said, “They weren’t soft-hearted when they cut off our water and electricity in the Eastern Third District. If Liang Huan hadn’t stockpiled enough resources before, we would have had a water and electricity shortage long ago.”

Pei Zhong squatted down to help him dismantle it together: “If we get the core equipment of the protective shield, then we can completely break away from the control of the military department. Looking at it this way, it’s worth the time we spent working as a mole in the military department.”

“I’m going crazy if I stay any longer.” Yue Hang sped up his movements, “Although the water and electricity supply is unlimited and the salary is high, I’m going to throw up from patrolling every day. When the time comes, I’ll see if I can take a few recruits back to the Eastern Third District.”

Pei Zhong: “…Isn’t that not so good?”

“Old Pei, don’t be too moral.” Yue Hang patted him on the shoulder earnestly, “You don’t want to be exhausted to death by Liang Huan, do you?”

Pei Zhong nodded solemnly: “I hope Liang Huan can take down the external district’s entry and exit center as soon as possible.”

He had been missing the bionic giant panda inside for a long time. If the giant panda could be his assistant, he would be willing to go to work every day.

One hour later.

Ninth floor of the military department building.

The room was dark, the bed was messy, and the sound of the shower stopped abruptly.

Liang Huan rolled up the painting on the wall and put it into the scroll tube, and picked a few good ink sticks and put them into the box.

Li Yao came out with wet hair. He glanced at Liang Huan’s back, which was full of scratch marks, and then at his lean waist and long legs under the black pants. He took a breath as if tasting something. This kid must have adjusted his bones and body shape for personal gain. How could he be so beautiful and handsome… He couldn’t help but gloat and slap him a few times: “Your Majesty, your skin is too delicate to be grabbed. Were you frowning because it hurt?”

Liang Huan turned around and grabbed his hand: “No.”

Li Yao looked at him teasingly: “I thought you came to take something. This broken painting is on your mind. Am I not better looking than the painting?”

“Of course, it’s just not easy to see you.” Liang Huan grabbed his wet hair and buried his head in his neck, “Just blow up the military department and go back with me.”

Li Yao thought he was a bit clingy, but he couldn’t help but hug him tightly and sighed: “Your Majesty, don’t always say such terrible things while being all coquettish.”

Liang Huan hugged him and laughed, stroking the dragon tail wrapped around his waist leisurely. Li Yao almost got fired up again and pushed him away vigilantly: “Don’t be endless, there must be a limit to having an affair.”

Liang Huan forced him to the table, his hand wearing the black scale ring resting on the dark red tablecloth, trapping him completely in his arms: “There’s always going to be a limit to having an affair. Can you guarantee it?”

Li Yao’s lower back pressed against the edge of the table, and he said playfully: “I can, but why don’t you let me do it next time?”

A gentle smile appeared on Liang Huan’s face: “Unless you win against me.”

“Really?” Li Yao raised his eyebrows.

“Of course, a gentleman’s word is as good as his bond.” Liang Huan kissed the tip of his nose.

Of course it doesn’t count. He is the emperor, not a gentleman. He has been the emperor for so long that he has always been shameless.

Li Yao rubbed him hard: “Don’t seduce me.”

Liang Huan smiled and rested his forehead on his shoulder: “One hour is too much of a loss.”

Li Yao was about to “comfort” him when the alarm of the military department building sounded instantly, breaking the two people’s sticky warmth.

Deng Meng waited early in the equipment room on the ninth floor. The heavy off-road vehicle was quietly in the passageway, Pei Zhong and Yue Hang jumped in from the window with big bags, and Zhu Ming pushed Zhu Li in the trash car also sneaking into the door, three people quickly throw the people and things into the trunk.

In the last second of the hour, Liang Huan walked in carrying the painting tube and ink block and sat in the first co-driver.

The engine roared, and the black heavy off-road vehicle, like lightning, broke through the interception at the entrance of the tunnel, and the tail flame drew a beautiful arc in the air.

“The central equipment of the top-level protective cover’s main control room has been stolen! Repeat, the top-level protective cover’s main control room has been stolen! The building has entered a level 1 dangerous state!”

“The technology department’s system has been attacked by an unknown hacker! The building has entered a level 1 dangerous state!”

“The aerial exit on the ninth floor is abnormal! The whereabouts of an unknown vehicle have been discovered!”

The successive alarms rang in the building, and Li Yao listened to these outrageous alarms while putting on his clothes. He admired the many loopholes in the military department’s defense, and at the same time lamented Liang Huan’s cleverness and ruthlessness. This man was really going to fight to the death with the military department.

He suppressed the disappointment and inexplicable excitement in his heart and strode out.

As a result, he ran into Yi Heng Bai halfway.

The way he looked at Li Yao was somewhat guarded: “Where did you go for the last hour?”

Li Yao fiddled with his half-wet hair: “I got drunk, slept for a while, and then took a shower.”

Yi Heng Bai frowned: “Where did you sleep?”

“My ex-husband’s bedroom.” Li Yao looked at him inexplicably, “I got drunk and touched the scene, and couldn’t help but miss him.”

“Isn’t he bad to you?” Yi Heng Bai puzzled.

“But he looks really good.” Li Yao sighed, “Brother, isn’t that human nature?”

Yi Heng Bai: “…”

Can’t understand at all.

“Zhu Li is missing.” Yi Heng Bai stared at him.

Li Yao raised his eyebrows: “Who is Zhu Li?”

Yi Heng Bai gave him a deep look: “The heir to Dawn Group, and also a very important partner of ours.”

Li Yao said sternly: “Then hurry up and find him?”

Naturally, he couldn’t be found.

Even because the mole sent by Liang Huan was too good, many of the military department building’s mobile equipment was paralyzed. The people responsible for daily maintenance and inspection would only deal with the surface work. It was completely exposed when it was really used. The originally lively celebration banquet ended with the military department’s attack that shocked the entire Eastern First District, perfectly ending with a full stop.

All aspects of people are not very useful, the key time or Dawn Star on the field, mobilized three mecha departments to temporarily build a main control room, did not cause the protective shield system to completely paralyzed.

By the time Liming Xing returned to the office after a busy night, it was already five in the morning.

A faint fragrance rushed into his nose. Li Yao closed the door and looked over, only to see a large bouquet of dark red roses placed on the cold white metal table, with a very long gift box next to it.

He walked over and opened the box, and saw a long sword that was all black. The black dragon carved on the hilt was no different from the one on his shoulders and back. As soon as he touched the hilt, the long sword suddenly shrunk and turned into a black bracelet, firmly attached to his original bracelet, indistinguishable from each other.

A greeting card lay quietly in the box.

A soft laugh rang in the room.

The dawn light shone through the windows, falling between the words on the greeting card, reflecting a sharp stroke:

My great general, invincible.
